Do you drill before cutting for the kerf so you can put glue in it? I never understood the drilling part and I've bent a few pieces of MDF to give it a go for my next enclosure.

drill before, the holes are there for aid in the air pockets rising to the surface when filling with F/G resin.

Thumpper,

I like how you're using wider ports now on some enclosures.

It's a little harder to handle when putting it in the enclosure (I know) but it looks so damn cool!!! :fing34:

this enclosure will be used to Demo the 12" Xcons for the season and most likely Bass Race

I'll build something more complicated and technical for myself once the spring/summer

boom is over and I have more time for personal stuff

Your enclosures are fucking badass!

I would sweep your shop floor all day for the opportunity to learn from you.

Respect!

From his description, it sounds like it wouldn't take long to sweep the floor...LOL

He's kinda like Yoda when it comes to enclosures. :starwars:

I can't wait :D,so close, yet so far, plus my subs came in today, they shipped on thursday and came in today from woofersetc via USPS. Every package from US to Canada usually takes 2 weeks, it's just that way, but to mess with me, somehow the package got delivered in 5 business days, now they sit on the shelf and I can't stop looking at them :P I was hoping for longer ship time, so I wouldn't be tempted to unpack them every day and just stare at them :D
